Why is it getting harder to find top-notch recruits? Cinematic patriot Michael Medved insists it's because "many of the major stars today have an Ivy League background." As a result, he suggests, Hollywood no longer makes movies that accurately glorify "the heroic violence of brave men and women with guns, fighting selflessly for their country." We always had a feeling it was bad for America when Harvard accepted Natalie Portman, and now we know why.— GREG BEATO
